Yum. This was so delicious. After two weeks of trying to do a low-carb diet and not finding anything sweet and satisfying, I was delighted to find this! I bet it's fabulous with the strawberries, but I used raspberries instead, and only 15 of them (to cut carbs so I could drink the whole thing myself). This made more of a smoothie-like consistency rather than a thicker ice cream-type consistency. But it was freakin' awesome as a smoothie. And the entire recipe was only 4.37 net carbs done this way - I slurped it all up myself and moaned with pleasure as I did so. I used DaVinci white chocolate syrup (sugar free of course)...wonderful combination. Thanks for the awesome recipe Grandma Pat!
